Nice lookin hammer there J3. I was gonna comment on the endcap myself, but Tony already said it, LOL.
I tried that on mine, but messed it up, so now its an ugly endcap… but it works very well.
I love the way that no 2 modded Talons or Condors look the same. You can really develop a personality with them.
I have to laugh at myself now, because I was looking at the first picture for about 5 minutes trying to figure out what you had hanging off the front of your scope. I was even trying to figure out what you may use it for, then I realized it was the garbage can handle.
I am sleep deprived, 😀
Seems like every new picture gives me ideas… woot!! Love it.
Black I bought a used Jet….I been wanting one forever…I have been a partime gunsmith on powder burners for years…I got tired of having to get someone else to do my work….. I have about 3 project guns left to build and a few airgun projects in mind….I am thinking on setting up a website for custom crosman builds and my own sweet little superpump conversion for 1377/2289’s… Won’t do any work to compete with Anthony though. My frame extensions are limited to me…..
Thanks WOK…..the grip does fit well…Imade a second set for my father that turned out better…once I get some more time I’ll try again…..
Looks nice J3! those grips are sweet. Your stacking up a bunch of critters with that monster masher too!
What lathe did you get?
Jim.
The grip and forend are great. Love the clean line and I bet it is easy to hold and very natural while shooting.
Love the work
J…..that is one sweeeeet looking bird 😀
😯
Must order lathe soon…
Awesome stuff!!!
….A blessing and a curse…. 😉
You nailed it!!
Thanks Anthony….. I used a wide gap in the rings so as not to completly copy you… LOL … This site has been an inspiration and a curse….
Way to go J,
Nice looking rig.
Like the rings on the endcap…hehe
HERE YA GO…..keep in mind i have’nt painted the extension yet
Looking forward to seeing it!!!!
Yes, pics please, can’t tease us with a bunch of written script. Yes they are that addictive, mine is usually in pieces being fitted to a grip, foregrip or in this case the full stock. That doesn’t cover all the odds and ends which i put on it, but i didn’t make. WOuld like a lathe someday to see what i could come up with in terms on endcaps, brechs, hammers dam does the list end?? See what i mean.
Sound great….Pictures please 😀
